Hungary spanks America in Dragon Age: Origins contest

America, however, must have only been slightly peckish, ending up with a disappointing ninth place (or next-to-last place) finish, and getting eliminated in the third round of the competition. This might be a small blow to our egos, but hey -- at least we're still better at dragon slaying than the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Booyah!

OMG Best Joystiq moment ever.

That comment page was waaay too blue.
ChuckBartowski @ Oct 31st 2009 9:29PM
That hardly has anything to do with this btw... soooo...

You haven't seen the Xbox ban post before this? We're up to two pages of replies...

I'm getting sick of seeing the LG logo all over the place.
Are they sponsoring Joystiq?
Nathan-DTS [He is your father] @ Nov 1st 2009 2:25PM
I will repeatedly post that now and then. It's my mission to recreate that moment.
Nathan-DTS [He is your father] @ Nov 1st 2009 2:26PM
Bradwart, this is 3 and a bit pages of replies but everything is BLUE.

"Hungarier THAN everyone" Gosh, you guys should of paid better attention in English class.

"should HAVE paid better attention in English class." Gosh, you should have paid better attention in English class.
Jose [Steam & PSN: Assmar] @ Oct 31st 2009 8:27PM
It wasn't completely obvious that was intentional? Gosh, flarkle, you should have paid better attention in ironic humor class.

Nice spin you put on your fuck up.

Emo kids aren't allowed opinions.

Neither are idiots.
Well, they are, we just don't care about them.

Good to hear that Vlad Tepis has found alternative ways to channel his bloodlust.
B-rad @ Nov 2nd 2009 11:55AM
Vlad Tepes lived in Romania, not Hungary.

Truly, this is The Age of Hungary.

USA! USA! USA! USA!
USA #1! USA #1! USA #1!
...
wait...
We got beat by another country at what we do best... doing absolutely nothing?...
Seriously you guys...
Seriously?...
Seriously...
Hydrophobicfish (PSN: HydrophobicFish) @ Oct 31st 2009 9:14PM
In the interest of full disclosure, I meant doing nothing as in the type of sitting around on the couch... not as in the type of doing nothing and not getting involved in others' business... We're the worst at doing nothing when it comes to the later.

Ok, you laid on the obligatory "America sucks" comment. Truly, you should feel special. You're brilliant political analysis and sharpest of wits have made Joystiq a better place.
Darth Bradwart, Dark Lord of the Sith @ Nov 1st 2009 12:02AM
I'm pretty sure he's American...which means he can say what ever he wants...
Also, that wouldn't be a political analysis; it would be a societal analysis.
manyquestions @ Nov 1st 2009 9:11AM
It was also sarcasm. The point was that his comment was wholly out of place.
romeozor @ Oct 31st 2009 9:16PM
i suggest you don't try that Hungary => Hungry transition with the locals in convo, they might bite your tits off
Darth Bradwart, Dark Lord of the Sith @ Nov 1st 2009 12:09AM
They're sensitive, are they?
Shall I tell a Polish joke?
Meh @ Nov 1st 2009 8:12AM
NO

Some of the footage from this event has been insanely good, definitely spiritual successor to Baldur's Gate material.

From what I watched in these two videos, no story spoilers from what I can tell, pretty much pure combat and item management.

Hungary RLZ! :)
eASToNE @ Nov 1st 2009 7:01PM
HUNGARY RLZ!

I want to see America vs Hungary in Halo 3 multiplayer.
HappyHunter @ Nov 4th 2009 1:42PM
